Farming Beautiful Widow - C122
Liu Da He paid 2 taels of silver to sever Wen Xiu’s relationship with the Li family, or even to sever it cleanly. That was his selfish intention. Therefore, when Liu Yide mentioned that Old Lady Li had accepted his silver, he was unwilling to admit it. He even did not hesitate to berate his beloved son. Who asked him to have a guilty conscience?
Liu Yide was a smart guy, he knew what to say and what not to say, and he also knew how to say it so that the villagers wouldn’t misunderstand his father. He insisted on this all along, his father paid for the money purely because he sympathized with Wen Xiuniang and the other two, so he wanted to help them.
Two taels of silver was not a small sum in the village of Xitang, so when Liu Da He’s image of righteousness was set straight, he instantly received even more respect and reverence. The villagers, who had been muttering amongst themselves, had long stood on his side. They all attacked the Li family members who were venomous to the heart. No matter how Mrs. Li explained or accused Liu Yide of lying, they would not believe her.
Wenxiu was the weak one, and Liu Dahe was the righteous one. Old Mrs. Li was just like that clown who made a fuss. What was the use of saying so much?
“Big Brother Liu, I didn’t think that you would pay so much for us villagers. You actually paid for yourself. You are truly great.” It would have been better if Li Jun hadn’t said anything. The moment he did, Liu Da He felt even more sarcastic. He felt extremely uncomfortable all over.
Liu Da He forced a smile and politely said that he was not that great, he was just doing his duty. He was righteous, it was his responsibility to protect the villagers, and so on. His words had gained him quite a bit of goodwill.
At the side, Wenxiu silently glanced at Liu Da He. Her mind was as clear as a mirror, and she knew it very well. Liu Dahe might have said that, but he probably didn’t think that way at the time. However, no matter what, Liu Dahe had still helped her and even paid her back. Now, she wanted him to take advantage of her and pay her back.
“Many thanks to Li Zheng for sympathizing with the three of us!”
“Wen Xiu …”
Liu Da He turned to Wen Xiu, wanting to say something but hesitating. Who knew how uncomfortable his heart was? He saw how dazzling Li Jun’s face was.
When Wen Xiu saw the deep affection on his face, she quickly shifted her gaze away. She was afraid that he would miss out on the filling and everything Liu Yide had done for him would be for naught. She quickly changed her target to Old Lady Li and said, “If the contract is not counted, then you must pay for it now. If the contract is made, I will pay two taels of silver. But after that, our family will have nothing to do with your Li Family.” Since we don’t have anything to do with each other, I don’t mind if you ask us to move out of your house. We’ve endured so much in the past, but the Heavens have no reason to let us mother our winter. ”
Wen Xiuzhu has won over Old Lady Li,” the voice boomed. “Didn’t you say you were going to pack up? Go back! Go back!
The peasants were all simple and honest. Hearing Wenxiu’s words, they all treated it as if Wenxiu had been angered into a daze and said something infuriating. At the same time, they advised Wenxiu not to be so foolish and that moving out would freeze to death.
Li family’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law stood at the heart of the wave as they looked at the villagers who stood on the same front as Wen Xiu. They nearly fainted from anger.
Old Mrs. Li looked at Wen Xiu’s pretty face and wished she could tear it apart. Her chest heaved with anger and she didn’t say anything for a long time. She actually wanted to break off with this little slut and take the house back, but what about the potato powder business? Would a little whore still give it to him? It was not only the little slut who would not agree, even Li Jun would not agree. However, if she went back on her word and didn’t break off their relationship, then she’d have to return the two taels of silver. That money had long since been spent by that prodigal son of Li Lu.
How infuriating!
Old Madame Li was momentarily in a dilemma. It could be said that she was stuck between a rock and a hard place. What should she do?
“After thinking about it for so long, I can’t stop it. You have only one word to say!”
Wenxiu was no b * tch, nor was she a b * tch with morals. She had always been a “if someone else steps in my way, I will pay my respects”. A wicked woman like Old Lady Li, who had no sense of propriety and had no sense of shame, was already considered kind if she didn’t kill her. How could she be expected to respect her elders? What a joke!
Therefore, he had to force her when the time was right. He absolutely couldn’t give her a chance to catch her breath.
When Lady Wang saw the unsightly expression on Old Lady Li’s face, she knew that her plan for today had come to nothing. Not only that, but she was afraid that the two taels of silver would be spat out without changing a single bit.
Ah, two taels of silver! It really made her feel uncomfortable!
“Mom, why is this happening?”
The Zhou family was slow on the uptake, and their head was completely unable to react. They stupidly moved closer to Old Madame Li. As Lady Wang expected, Old Lady Li rolled her eyes and cursed at her!
He was truly a good-for-nothing that failed to achieve anything!
“Old Mrs. Li, tell me, why are you mute?”
“That’s right, didn’t he shout very loudly just now? How come you weren’t so quiet when we checked into the house? ”
“Sigh, you want silver coins, you want a house, and you also want the business in Wen Xiu’s hands … Tsk tsk tsk, it’s hard! ”
It was unknown who shouted out in a weird voice, but the crowd instantly burst into laughter, causing Old Lady Li’s expression to change again and again.
Today, she had truly failed!
Liu Yide was very smart. Seeing that the situation was developing in the direction he had expected, he quickly took advantage of the situation and struck the iron while it was still hot, “Li Aimin, do you want to pay back the two taels of silver from my family or do you want Aunt Guan Wenxiu?”
“I …”
“Mother, why don’t we break off all relations?”
Lady Wang felt sorry for the two taels of silver and encouraged Old Lady Li to sever all ties with her. As long as Wenxiu and the Li Family had nothing to do with it, they could properly take back the house and chase Wenxiu’s family out. In this weather, hiding at home would only make it cold and not hot. Moreover, they would have nowhere to go if they were chased out.
Hehe, so what if she knows how to make potato powder? At that time, any profitable business would just be a waste. Earning money? None at all!
It had to be said, Lady Wang’s considerations were quite comprehensive, but her heart was truly sinister and poisonous!
Mrs Wang was thinking of a good thing, but Mrs Li was reluctant to part with more silver. For the high profits of the potato powder business, she lifted Mrs Wang up and shouted at Wen Xiu while gritting her teeth, “You want to cut off all ties with me? You don’t even have the money!” Wasn’t it just two taels of silver? “I’ll pay you back!”
Liu Da He and his son were shocked, they did not expect Old Mrs. Li to admit to paying them back, “Have you really made up her mind?”
“Yes!”
Liu Da He did not know if he should be happy or not, after all, ever since he came back, he had not smiled.
Li Jun and Wen Xiu had already expected that Old Lady Li would choose this way. After all, compared to the two taels of silver, the potato powder business was much more profitable. “Mother, since you don’t want to break off our relationship, Wen Xiu and I will go back first. Since the child is young, I won’t be able to rest easy at home. ”
“You …”
Old Madam Li’s vital energy and blood assaulted her heart. Her eyes rolled back as she fainted from anger!
